I think one of the terrible things today is that people have this deathly fear of food: fear of eggs, say, or fear of butter. Most doctors feel that you can have a little bit of everything.

More quotes by Julia Child
I think careful cooking is love, don't you?
Julia Child
The only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you've got to have a what-the-hell attitude.
Julia Child
The egg can be your best friend if you just give it the right break
Julia Child
...nothing is too much trouble if it turns out the way it should.
Julia Child
My mother was independent. She had grown up in Dalton and Pittsfield, in western Massachusetts, and she was one of the first women drivers in that area.
Julia Child
Too much trouble,' 'Too expensive,' or 'Who will know the difference' are death knells for good food. ... Cooking is not a particularly difficult art, and the more you cook and learn about cooking, the more sense it makes.
Julia Child
In my generation, except for a few people who'd gone into banking or nursing or something like that, middle-class women didn't have careers. You were to marry and have children and be a nice mother. You didn't go out and do anything. I found that I got restless.
Julia Child
Until I discovered cooking, I was never really interested in anything.
Julia Child
It's so beautifully arranged on the plate - you know someone's fingers have been all over it.
Julia Child
A house without a cat is like a day without sunshine, a pie without fromage, a dinner without wine.
Julia Child
I don't believe in twisting yourself into knots of excuses and explanations over the food you make.... Usually one's cooking is better than one thinks it is. And if the food is truly vile...then the cook must simply grit her teeth and bear it with a smile.
Julia Child
If you're not ready to fail, you're not going to learn how to cook.
Julia Child
How lovely life can be if one takes time to be friendly.
Julia Child
If you are going to flip something, you must have the courage of your convictions.
Julia Child
I have trouble with toast. Toast is very difficult. You have to watch it all the time or it burns up.
Julia Child
Just like becoming an expert in wine, you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford.
Julia Child
Always remember: If you're alone in the kitchen and you drop the lamb, you can always just pick it up. Who's going to know?
Julia Child
In spite of food fads, fitness programs, and health concerns, we must never lose sight of a beautifully conceived meal.
Julia Child
Remember, 'No one's more important than people'! In other words, friendship is the most important thing--not career or housework, or one's fatigue--and it needs to be tended and nurtured.
Julia Child
I'd like for people to be able to go to the universities and get a degree in fine arts-gastronomy.
